I focus onto the fates of my family in the hinges of history of the 20th century, on the inherited memories. The epoch is portrayed through paintings of old photos and letters. My works are about the bond with previous generations, and about the way my parents' and grandparents' memories, which I have inherited, influence my perception of reality and the decisions I make today. In this series that explores connections, there are portraits of my family members that are related, while separated by five generations.

Dita Lūse is an award-winning artist based in Latvia, whose artworks have been exhibited internationally.  She has studied at the Art Academy of Latvia and University of Wisconsin and has had over 30 solo shows and participated in numerous group shows. Dita Lūse is a painter and works in oil on canvas, in a manner which resembles watercolour painting - with thin washes in multiple layers.  While her art explores diverse subjects, the recurring theme is the relation between light and time. Luse often depicts spaces that are laden with memories, highlighting the depth and atmosphere that light creates. Her engaging compositions fuse realism with impressionism and conceptual art. The works by the artist cover themes such as the interplay of light and shadow in interiors, the enigmatic characters of X-ray images and the depiction of multi-layered memories in the works of the recent years.
